Couldn't get into this movie; didn't even finish watching it. Ladies who are Bradidots and macho men made this popular.

One of the best 10 movies ever made.

Served its purpose

It was nowhere near as good as everyone seemed to make out.

It's defnitely a screwed up movie. That being said, it's also a good movie. I suppose I should have seen the ending coming, but it surprised me.

I absolutly LOVE this movie! The author of the book, Chuck Palahniuk, is a genius. David Fincher did a great job of portraying Chuck's vision. This movie shows just what can happen when you have too much control over your life and the horrible effects of what happens when you begin to lose everything. Whenever I am down and out I watch Fight Club and it makes me feel better about my situations. Edward, Brad, and Helena give stunning performances and are able to pull you in so you can feel what they are feeling; and think like they do. What would you do if you suddenly lost everything? It's only after we've lost everything that we are free to do anything. If you like this type of dark humor/drama check out Chuck Palahniuk's other books. Invisible Monsters and Choke are both wild trips. It makes you look at the whole picture in a different view.

Amazing movie of our generation. I can't street how great this flick is. It's kind of funny how it flopped at the movies, but i guess it was a bit before it's time. David Fincher is a genius!

how is this a drama? mmmm

A great movie,although it may be too violent for some viewers.It starts off rather funny,with the character so addicted to self-help groups that he attends ones that are for problems he doesn't even have! Then the plot takes one of many twists,and you're in for a wild ride!(I don't want to spoil the suprises).Tight direction and top-notch acting go hand in hand with a good script,making this off-beat classic one of the best films I've seen in recent years.

I'm gonna shoot at my imaginary friend friend while standing next to 400 gallons of nitroglycerine sometime...

I have lost count of how many times I have had to explain to people that Brad Pitt's character is the Ed Norton character's alter ego. A good, enjoyable film.

A darkly humourous films with many very funny moments particularly Ed Norton's characters's monologue about his sad IKEA lifestyle. It's not as violenmt as it's reputation and there are one or tow gross out bits e.g. when Norton and Pitt go salvaging for human body fat for Pitt's soap business. However, it's the ending that spoils it for me and loses one star. Too much of a wierd David Lynch type cop out for my liking.

What a pile of dog crap this was and over rated. It is supposed to have some deep meaning about internal struggles, to me it is the story of a mad man told from the slightly saner personality.

A nihilistic descent into schizophrenic madness that I can't stop watching. Maybe it's the intricate photographic work, maybe it's Fincher's ear for dialogue, maybe it's the spellbinding performances by Ed Norton, Helena Bonham Carter, Meatloaf, and Brad Pitt, maybe it's all of the aforementioned.....it's an obsessive relationship that I never want to end. From the opening "needle drag" and Dust Brothers intro, you're swept into the dreary dirge of Norton's anticipated existence (recounted through jarring skips and flashbacks), never suspecting the ease with which he ends up dealing with his insomnia-induced repression. Shot through with trenchant humor, jabs at popular culture, and gnarly twists throughout, you'll find yourself enjoying it a little more than you should. A few "squirm and shifts" from time to time (and his name is Robert Paulson), but with a title like "Fight Club", you shouldn't expect shortbread at high tea. Get the disc and see for yourself why this film instills such ardor among its legion of loyal and eager fans.

My entire family likes this movie; not sure why. Brad Pitt is hot but that's about it for me. The whole plot is stupid to me. But then again,it's just my opinion.

A very good movie. The first time I watched it I didn't get it. I watched it again and listened to an interview of Ed Norton, and Brad Pitt, then I began to get it. Since then I've probably watched it two or 3 more times and pick up more and more each time. It's a brilliant film. How I didn't see it from the beginning I don't know. The twists and turns this movie take. It really makes you pay attention and think, it's not a movie that you can flip back and forth to or watch while you're doing something else. Ed Norton-a fantastic actor. Brad Pitt-more than just a pretty face. I like to watch this when I'm alone so there are no distractions.

i want to fight the bush administration.....and then serve them up some of that chowder.

great acting

my favorite movie ever

Brad Pitt and Edward Norton shine in this cutting edge drama. The whole movie is thrilling and humerous. I was on the edge of my seat (couch) the whole entire movie. WOW!!! One of my favorite films of all time. No doubt about it.

Pathetic.What is so great about this movie?

One of my favorite films.

what do you think

A cutting edge movie, through and through. Norton does another great job (I only knew him from Rounders) and somehow complements Pitt pretty well. The camera work was fascinating and original.

One of the most violent, useless movies ever made. Not as bad as A Clockwork Orange, however.

The greatest movie ever made.

Good, but a little out of the ordinary. Brad Pitt is good, and Edward Norton shines in this film. However, the story becomes too absurd to be enjoyable. If you liked Snatch, you could probalby go for this one too. Watch it on a rainy day.

Hands down the best socially influential movie since Pulp Fiction and Resivior Dogs and the best(and probably only good) Brad Pitt movie. This is my bible.

Its my fav. movie ever. If you havent seen this movie go buy it! now! Its not about fighting If you cant appreciate this movie for what it really means I feel bad for you. I wish I could give it 10 stars

Awesome movie! Inspires lots of philosophical conversations.

why isn't this movie in the top 10?!?! this is by far one of the best movies that i have ever seen! brad pitt and ed norton are amazing, and it really stays true to the book.

A movie that contains no optimism and has protagonists spreading evil, this one should certainly be avoided at all costs by everyone. The "hero" of the movie containmates restaurant food and makes illegal soap. These insane people then want to fight to be able to feel. That makes no sense. This, of course, leads to alot of gore and blood, with senseless violence all around. Of course, this terror of a movie got critically acclaimed. But we all know adult means sexual and gritty means filled to the brim with senseless violence. Whatever happened to the G-rated live-action genre?

Strong start, bad ending... :o(

it was ironic and very strange, I had no clue what was going on untill the end, very confusing but if you think about it, the story's very good. bizzare ending, who would've known? good film

Good, but often times confusing movie. Brad Pitt give a great performance. All I can say is that it is good film.

A powerful punch of a movie. Tough hard hitting drama, with Edward Norton as the nameless star. Pitt and Bonham-Carter are excellent in support. But this is Finchers film, his direction is faultless, crafting the music, orchestrating the editing to weave his magic.

My 5th favorite movie of all time.

The best movie ever made...thats that.

Definantly a five star movie. Its almost scary of how real the acting was. You really dont get all the sub messages that this movie gives off unless you see it about four times. Unless your some movie badass and can name every little twist this thing shows. If you want to see a movie that will get you thinking,than this is your movie.

What an amazing movie!!!!!Haven't seen one that good in a long time. I really admire Edward Norton's work. He's one talented actor! Brad Pitt was at his best. I just loved the end. I'm an optimist when it comes to judging movies...

David Fincher always manages to direct the kind of films that take the viewer to the deepest, darkest recesses of the psyche and have them relate to it consciously or subconciously. "Fight Club" is a fine example of this! And Fincher's presentation of the film proves that as his skill is improving, his cynacism and originality remain intact. (The IKEA scene was much lauded and I know will be much emulated in the future.) The script in this film blew me away with it's colorful narration and crisp dialogue. The acting in this film was phenomenal. It wasn't so much Edward Norton that surprised me as what I've seen of his talent he could play the transvestite in "The Crying Game" and have us all completely fooled, nor was it Brad Pitt who by the way hasn't exuded so much personality in a film since "12 Monkeys". It was Helena Bonham Carter who fleshed out Marla so beautifully that it was difficult to sympathize with her, yet it was impossible to hate her as well. And Meatloaf, who was completely surprising, was so touching and funny in his portrayal of Bob. But let's talk about the violence in this movie. I'm going to have to agree with Ploughman on this one: the violence in "Fight Club" is as signifigant as it was in "A Clockwork Orange" and should not be missed. Watching a film with the word "Fight" in the title and not expecting violence is like watching "Faces of Death" and not expecting to be traumatized! But the fight scenes are not only representative of Norton's inner turmoil (as Ploughman pointed out so insightfully), but an example of the lengths we go to to feel more alive, more complete in a society where we are becoming merely human counterparts to the technology we create. With that, if you haven't seen this film, watch it, and let the fight scenes make an imprint in your mind. What I find disturbing is not this film, but that the Academy chooses to recognize three-hour long drivel like "Titanic" and "The English Patient" and almost completely ignores brilliant, insightful explorations into the human condition like "Fight Club"!

By far one of the best films ever. Edward Norton is unbeleiveable! Brad Pitt's best role is Tyler. The twist was great and the plot line was strangley fascinating. This movie is great all around.

the kind of volatile subject matter which cannot and should not be tackled to often but fincher does it perfectly. top noch film. ignore all the pathetics who say it is 'disturbing'.

This movie is as incredibly weird and disturbing as it is strangely compelling. The dialogue/narration, especially at the beginning of the movie, is probably some of the most creative I have ever heard. Edward Norton gave an excellent performance and this is easily one of the most memorable from Brad Pitt. Helena Bonham Carter was extraordinary as Marla and looked so much as though she had just exited the set of a Tim Burton movie that I kept expecting to see sharp, pointy blades shoot out her fingers. She really took a daring trip to the opposite end of the range spectrum when you consider her past roles in "Lady Jane" and "Room with a View". Overall, this film is like an episode of the "Twilight Zone" on mega-doses of steroids. And, even though I hated the violence and agree with "Wiggum" that the ending was unsatisfying, I would have to give it 4 stars due to originality, creativity and the high level of performances given by these three actors.

I felt I had to rate this film to point out an error a lot of people seem to be making. The fighting that everyone is going mad about in the film, while being very accurate and thus nasty to watch, is also supposed to symbolise the inner turmoil going on within Edward Nortons charachter. The person who recommended people watch it but fast forward the fight scene's, is mis guiding people. The fight scenes are as important as the rest of the story, as they are supposed to give you an actualisation of his inner turmoil. Well, in my opinion, anyway. One more point- everyone seems to think that the main charachters name is Jack (Nortons), but if you watch the film again, you will see he only adopts this name after reading an article in a magazine he found in the house he shares with tyler- something about Jack's Kidney or something- anyway the point is we never find out his name, as it's not considered important because all that happens is done by Tyler anyway. Opinionated- I am, Right- your call!

A great and scary movie. Call me paranoid, but I see this as the anthem of the neo communists (Did you think those KGB moles just went away? Do you think Hollywood does not deserve their liberal label?). It advocates violence against buildings but not people -- just like the WTO riots. It demonstrates the underground structure of the Earth Liberation Front. It does a great job of ignoring the value of technology. It also ignores the way capitalism encourages people to use resources wisely; how will that unseen person manage to find time to wash his clothes and go shopping?

I first saw this film when my partner brought back a pirate copy from Khazackstan for my 19th and I loved it. At the beginning I thought I was imagining things when an image of Brad Pitt is imposed onto a frame in the film about 3 times. Very clever, you can see the insominia is building up with the main character. It is a very intresting concept and acted out very well.

When I saw the trailers for this movie, my first thought was "Great, another movie chock-full of testosterone and senseless violence..." Then one of my best friends came to me, raving about the movie and insisting that I go see it with him, immediately. I'm not one to pass up a free night at the movies, so I went, and what I saw delighted, shocked, and excited me. Fight Club, hands down, is one of the best movies I've ever seen. The original plot sucked me in from the beginning. Norton's brilliant portrayal of our average Joe (or in this case, Jack), plagued by the monotony of everyday life and lack of personal direction, shines in every scene, especially the voice-overs. Brad Pitt does a wonderful job of Durden, the little devil in all of us. Smart dialogue, great acting, original plot, awesome soundtrack (yay dustbrothers!), incredible camera work, and a surprise ending make this movie one wild ride. I'd reccommend it to anyone willing to look past a some excess violence for an awesome movie!

Billiant acting. Awesome cinematography. Great storyline, original, funny, very smart. Cool score/soundtrack music. 10/10, best movie i've ever seen, in my opinion.

Interesting - Edward Norton does a much better job than Bradd Pitt. Action, twist to story - wait to see on cable.
